Day One

Kind of a late start to the day. Not getting to bed until midnight, Benjamin slept until almost 9:00am. Our luggage didn't arrive overnight. Luckily, they had it when we went to the front desk. Now we have had our breakfast and we are on our way to "the hat" to see Star Wars. Yes, his shirt is on backwards. No, he doesn't care. Arrived too late to be a Jedi in Training. As daddy says, luckily no one has had any expectations of actually doing that. It is really warm out here. Benj didn't want to stay and watch the show. Good thing too! We found Phineas and Ferb. We didn't even know they were going to be here! Quick visit with the Muppets. Then it was off to Star Wars. Time for lunch and some play time at Honey, I Shrunk the Kids. Finally he appears to have some energy. We might be second guessing our plans to not bring a stroller with this one. We had a slight meltdown while waiting in line to see Buzz and Woody. We had to sit on a bench and have a Popsicle and a little rest. But that must have been the secret because he was fine the rest of the day. We then went back to Toy Story Mania. Man, that ride is fun. Even when daddy beats us all. After seeing Buzz and Woody, we headed to Ariel and Disney Junior. As we were coming out I saw the Animation Studio. Because he loves to draw and color so much, I suggested we go in to show him that grown ups can do that too. He did seem very interested in that, but the best part was all the characters that hide out in there! There must have been 10! His autograph book is already full. He picked up a "How to Draw" book and could hardly wait to get back to the room to crack it open. We grabbed dinner when got back to the hotel and caught the tail end of a movie out on the patio. Once back in the room, he got right to work on his drawing. We are trying to convince him to get a bath and go to bed so we can start a little earlier tomorrow. Benjamin's favorite part of the day was getting all the autographs.
